USB HDD & Ghost

**syscon** · 21st August 2005

I am trying to back up my pc to a usb HDD using ghost but with no luck as anyone had this problem and found what options / drivers are required?

It sounds like its not being recognized when ghost goes into its dos type mode.
I have tried this info from this web site only in dos not useing ghost so it may not work but if it does please let me know.

here is the link to the site www.bootdisk.com/usb.htm
I hope it helps.

When you create your ghost boot disk, one of the options is to create one with usb or network drivers, try running the ghost boot wizard again mate.

Cheers for the replies, tried ghost boot disk but on reboot the system doesn't see the usb hdd will try again later.

you have to specifically create one with usb drive support from the ghost boot wizard mate (on the pc where you have ghost installed).

Select Standard Boot disk, then on the next screen in the peer to peer options window, put a tick in the box for USB support, then just follow the process through and you'll be sorted.
